Another year is complete, and what a year it has been! As 2023 draws to a close, we would like to reflect on the many celebrations and achievements that have contributed towards a hugely successful year. Here are just some of the things that made 2023 great.

WE WERE EXACT

Throughout 2023, we embodied our company values; Exact, Ambition, Collaboration and Trust. These qualities represent the culture, attitude and behaviours that go on to support the vision of Alfred H Knight across the world.

WE GAVE BACK

As a family-owned organisation with roots deep in local communities, Alfred H Knight recognises the importance of giving back. Through our dedicated charity fund, we support colleagues during their fundraising campaigns and have generously donated to many fantastic local and national charities and causes over the years.

From sponsoring grassroots clubs to clothing collections and foodbank donations, 2023 has certainly been a busy year. With so many notable events to celebrate, we are looking forward to continuing our support for local communities within the new year!

WE PIONEERED PROGRESSION

At Alfred H Knight, we are dedicated to developing our services, facilities and people to ensure our clients receive the most accurate and reliable support in line with industry demand and requirements.

This year we were committed to developing our offering and launching several new services. These include our Specialist Sampling Hub Services, Lithium Analysis across Africa, Load Port Survey Report Services and the introduction of our 6 Element Analysis services in South Africa.

WE CELEBRATED ACHIEVEMENTS

2023 was a year of celebrations, most notably the 50th anniversary of Alfred H Knight Peru! Following the acquisition of a local assay laboratory in 1973, AHK Peru has provided support to organisations across South America ever since and continues to enable trade across the region.

Alfred H Knight was recognised for its industry-leading practices this year. In the UK, we were named the winner of the Best Social Impact award at the North West Business Awards ceremony. To receive such an award that recognises our dedication to social responsibility fills us all with immense pride.

In China, we were presented with the award for “Outstanding Laboratory Service Provider” at the Fubao Lithium Industry Conference held in Ningbo. We are delighted to have been recognised for our contribution to the development of the battery recycling industry through our industry-leading research and service provisions.

This year’s International Women’s Day was all about embracing equity. To celebrate the day, we asked colleagues across the world to share their embracing equity images. This was a fantastic opportunity for everyone to come together and work towards creating an inclusive environment.

LOOKING FORWARD TO 2024

Our success in 2023 demonstrates our commitment to developing our services in line with ever-evolving industries and their demands.

To all of our colleagues and clients, we thank you for being part of our journey so far and making 2023 a spectacular year. We are looking forward to building on this success within the new year!
